Pulley: Inclined plane: Teeter totter:

 A piece of string . A race car track . A small board


 Two cups .Tape .Legos
 Two weights .wooden blocks
 A pulley .dominos
.car

Each of these simple machines connects to make our part of the Rube

Goldberg machine. First was the inclined plane and after the dominos then it hit the

car and went down the track. Then after that the car rolls off and hits a ball on the

teeter totter and after that the ball rolls and hits a weight knocking it into one of the

cups and the result weight shift allows the other cup to rise. After that the cup hits

another ball and that ball rolls and hits another, rolls over a second see saw and

rolls into the next machine.

The overall machine in general did not have many parts that worked the

weight of the amount of force almost broke a part of the see saw. Most of our

machines made flaws the only ones that actually worked were the inclined plane

and the pulley. The inclined plain worked with just the ball rolling down it and the

pulley system with a couple tries and the right amount of weight ended up working

much better than expected. Some changes made to our machines were for one on

the teeter totter with a larger teeter totter overall made it easier to have the rolling

over it.
